Jeremiah 49
1 Of the people of Ammon. "Thus says YHWH: 'Has Israel no sons? Has he no heir? Why then does Milcom possess Gad, and his people dwell in its cities?
Konsènan fis a Ammon yo. Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Èske Israël pa gen fis? Oswa èske li pa gen eritye? Alò poukisa Malcom te pran posesyon sou Gad, e se pèp li ki vin rete nan vil pa yo?
2 Therefore look, the days come,' says YHWH, 'that I will cause an alarm of war to be heard against Rabbah of the people of Ammon; and it shall become a desolate heap, and her daughters shall be burned with fire: then shall Israel possess those who possessed him,' says YHWH.
Pou sa, gade byen, jou yo ap vini”, deklare SENYÈ a: “ke Mwen va fè yon twonpèt fè son lagè kont Rabbath, fis a Ammon yo; epi li va devni pil dezole, e vil li yo va limen ak dife. Konsa, Israël va pran posesyon de sila ki posede l yo,” pale SENYÈ a.
3 'Wail, Heshbon, for Ai is laid waste; cry, you daughters of Rabbah, clothe yourself in sackcloth: lament, and run back and forth among the fences; for Milcom shall go into captivity, his priests and his officials together.
“Rele anmwey, O Hesbon! Paske Aï fin detwi! Kriye fò, O fi a Rabbath yo! Mare senti nou ak twal sak ak gwo kri e kouri fè ale retou anndan miray yo; paske Malcom va ale an egzil ansanm ak prèt li yo ak prens yo.
4 Why do you glory in the valleys, your flowing valley, backsliding daughter? You who trusted in her treasures, saying, "Who shall come to me?"
Pouki sa ou ògeye pou vale yo! Vale yo kap koule, O fi ki chite fè bak, ki plase konfyans li nan trezò li yo? E k ap di: ‘Kilès ki va vini kont mwen?’
5 Look, I will bring a fear on you,' says YHWH of hosts, 'from all who are around you; and you shall be driven out every man right forth, and there shall be none to gather together the fugitives.
Gade byen, m ap fè gwo laperèz rive sou ou,” deklare Senyè BONDYE dèzame yo: “Soti nan tout kote ki antoure ou yo; epi nou chak va chase sòti tèt devan, san pèsòn ki pou rasanble sila ki gaye yo.
6 But afterward I will bring back the captivity of the people of Ammon,' says YHWH."
“Men apre, Mwen va restore fòtin a fis a Ammon yo,” deklare SENYÈ a.
7 Of Edom. "Thus says YHWH of hosts: 'Is wisdom no more in Teman? Is counsel perished from the prudent? Is their wisdom vanished?
Konsènan Édom. Konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo: “Èske pa gen sajès ankò nan Théman? Èske tout konsèy a sila ki pridan yo fin pèdi? Èske sajès yo vin pouri?
8 Flee, turn back, dwell in the depths, inhabitants of Dedan; for I will bring the calamity of Esau on him, the time that I shall visit him.
Chape poul ou, retounen, rete nan pwofondè yo, O sila ki rete Dedan yo! Paske Mwen va mennen dezas Ésaü a sou li nan lè M ap pini li a.
9 If grape gatherers came to you, would they not leave some gleaning grapes? If thieves by night, wouldn't they destroy until they had enough?
Si sila k ap ranmase rezen yo te vin kote ou, èske yo pa t ap kite kèk grenn fwi tonbe atè? Si yon vòlè te vini lannwit, yo ta vole sèlman kont yo pou yo ta jwenn ase.
10 But I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered his secret places, and he shall not be able to hide himself: his seed is destroyed, and his brothers, and his neighbors; and he is no more.
Men Mwen te rete rad sou Ésaü. Mwen te dekouvri kote kache li yo jiskaske li pa t ka kache menm. Desandan li yo, moun fanmi li yo, vwazen li yo ak li menm pa egziste menm ankò.
11 Leave your fatherless children, I will preserve them alive; and let your widows trust in me.'
Kite òfelen ou yo dèyè; Mwen va konsève yo. Kite vèv ou yo mete konfyans yo nan Mwen.”
12 For thus says YHWH: 'Look, they to whom it did not pertain to drink of the cup shall certainly drink; and are you he who shall altogether go unpunished? You shall not go unpunished, but you shall surely drink.
Paske konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Gade byen, sila ki pa t kondane pou bwè tas yo va, anverite, bwè l, e èske se ou sèl k ap epanye? Nou p ap epanye, men anverite, nou va bwè l.
13 For I have sworn by myself,' says YHWH, 'that Bozrah shall become an astonishment, a reproach, a waste, and a curse; and all its cities shall be perpetual wastes.'"
Paske Mwen te sèmante pa Mwen menm”, deklare SENYÈ a: “ke Botsra va devni yon objè degoutan, yon repwòch, yon pil mazi kraze ak yon malediksyon. Tout vil li yo va vin pil mazi.”
14 I have heard news from YHWH, and an ambassador is sent among the nations, saying, "Gather yourselves together, and come against her, and rise up to the battle."
Mwen te tande yon mesaj soti nan SENYÈ a e yon mesaje vin voye pami tout nasyon yo, t ap di: “Rasanble nou ansanm. Vin kont li! Leve pou batay!”
15 "For, look, I have made you small among the nations, and despised among men.
“Paske gade byen, Mwen te fè nou piti pami nasyon yo, meprize pami lòm.
16 As for your terror, the pride of your heart has deceived you, O you who dwell in the clefts of the rock, who hold the height of the hill: though you should make your nest as high as the eagle, I will bring you down from there," says YHWH.
Men pou laperèz a ou menm, awogans a kè ou te twonpe ou; ou menm ki rete nan twou wòch yo, ki okipe wotè a kolin nan. Malgre ou fè nich ou wo tankou èg, M ap rale ou desann soti la,” deklare SENYÈ a.
17 "Edom shall become an astonishment: everyone who passes by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss at all its plagues.
“Édom va devni yon objè degoutan; chak moun ki pase bò kote li va etone, e va sifle kon koulèv sou tout blesi li yo.
18 As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbor cities of it," says YHWH, "no man shall dwell there, neither shall any son of man live in it.
Tankou boulvèsman Sodome ak Gomorrhe ak vwazen li yo”, di SENYÈ a: “pèsòn p ap viv la, ni p ap gen youn nan fis a lòm ki rete la.
19 Look, he shall come up like a lion from the pride of the Jordan against the strong habitation: for I will suddenly make them run away from it; and whoever is chosen, him will I appoint over it: for who is like me? And who will appoint me a time? And who is the shepherd who will stand before me?
“Gade byen, youn va monte kon yon lyon ki soti nan rakbwa Jourdain an kont yon patiraj ki tèlman byen wouze; pou yon moman, mwen va fè l kouri kite li e nenpòt moun ki deziye, Mwen va bay li pouvwa sou li. Paske se kilès ki tankou Mwen menm? E se kilès k ap voye pwosè vèbal tribinal ban Mwen? Alò, se kilès ki bèje ki ka kanpe devan Mwen?”
20 Therefore hear the counsel of YHWH, that he has taken against Edom; and his purposes, that he has purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: Surely they shall drag them away, the little ones of the flock; surely he shall make their habitation desolate over them.
Pou sa, koute plan ke SENYÈ a fòme kont Édom ak objektif ke Li te fòme kont moun ki rete Théman yo: Anverite, yo va trennen yo deyò, menm pi piti nan bann mouton an. Anverite, Li va fè patiraj yo vin dezole akoz de yo menm.
21 The earth trembles at the noise of their fall; there is a cry, the noise which is heard in the Red Sea.
Latè te souke akoz bri chit yo. Gen yon gwo kri anmwey! Bri li te rive jis nan Lamè Wouj.
22 Look, he shall come up and fly as the eagle, and spread out his wings against Bozrah: and the heart of the mighty men of Edom at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs."
Gade byen, Li va monte, desann kon yon èg e lonje zèl li kont Botsra. Kè a moun pwisan yo va tankou kè a yon fanm k ap pouse pitit.
23 Of Damascus. "Hamath is confounded, and Arpad; for they have heard evil news, they are melted away: there is sorrow on the sea; it can't be quiet.
Konsènan Damas. “Hamath ak Arpad fè wont nèt, paske yo te resevwa move nouvèl. Yo dekouraje. Kouraj yo ba nèt. Gen enkyetid bò lanmè a; li pa ka kalme.
24 Damascus has grown feeble, she turns herself to flee, and trembling has seized on her: anguish and sorrows have taken hold of her, as of a woman in travail.
Damas vin enpwisan nèt; li te vire sove ale, e gwo laperèz fin sezi li. Gwo doulè ak sezisman pran l tankou yon fanm k ap akouche.
25 How is the city of praise not forsaken, the city of my joy?
Ki jan vil lwanj Mwen an pa vin dezète, vil lajwa Mwen an!
26 Therefore her young men shall fall in her streets, and all the men of war shall be brought to silence in that day," says YHWH of hosts.
Konsa, jennonm pa l yo va tonbe nan ri li yo e tout mesye lagè yo va tonbe an silans nan jou sa a,” deklare SENYÈ dèzame yo.
27 "I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it shall devour the palaces of Ben Hadad."
Mwen va mete dife nan miray Damas lan e li va devore tou bèl palè Ben-hadad yo.
28 Of Kedar, and of the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon struck. "Thus says YHWH: 'Arise, go up to Kedar, and destroy the people of the east.'
Konsènan Kédar ak wayòm a Hatsor yo, ke Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, te pran nan batay. Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Leve monte Kédar e detwi mesye nan lès yo.
29 Their tents and their flocks shall they take; they shall carry away for themselves their curtains, and all their vessels, and their camels; and they shall cry to them, 'Terror on every side.'
Yo va pran tant yo ak bann mouton yo; yo va pote pou kont yo tout rido tant yo, tout byen yo ak tout chamo yo e yo va rele a youn lòt: ‘Gwo laperèz tout kote!’
30 Flee, wander far off, dwell in the depths, you inhabitants of Hazor," says YHWH; "for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has taken counsel against you, and has conceived a purpose against you."
“Kouri, sove ale! Rete nan pwofondè yo, o pèp Hatsor a”, deklare SENYÈ a: “Paske Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, te pran konsey kont nou, e te fome yon plan kont nou.
31 "Arise, go up to a nation that is at ease, that dwells without care, says YHWH; that have neither gates nor bars, that dwell alone.
Leve monte kont yon nasyon ki alèz, ki viv ansekirite,” deklare SENYÈ a: “Li pa gen pòtay, ni fè fòje; yo rete pou kont yo.”
32 Their camels shall be a booty, and the multitude of their livestock a spoil: and I will scatter to all winds those who have the corners of their beards cut off; and I will bring their calamity from every side of them," says YHWH.
Chamo pa yo va devni piyaj, gran kantite bèt yo va sèvi kon bagay sòlda pran, Mwen va gaye bay tout van yo a sila ki koupe kwen cheve yo; e Mwen va mennen sou yo gwo dezas ki sòti tout kote,” deklare SENYÈ a.
33 "Hazor shall be a dwelling place of jackals, a desolation forever: no man shall dwell there, neither shall any son of man live in it."
“Hatsor va vin yon kote pou chen mawon, yon kote dezole jis pou tout tan. P ap gen moun ki rete la, ni yon grenn nan fis a lòm p ap rete ladann.”
34 The word of YHWH that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,
Sa ki te sòti kon pawòl SENYÈ a konsènan Élam, nan kòmansman règn a Sédécias, wa Juda a, t ap di:
35 "Thus says YHWH of hosts: 'Look, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might.
“Konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo: ‘Gade byen, Mwen va kraze banza Élam nan, pi fò nan pwisans pa yo.
36 On Elam will I bring the four winds from the four quarters of the sky, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation where the outcasts of Elam shall not come.
Mwen va mennen sou Élam kat van ki sòti nan kat pwent syèl yo, e Mwen va gaye pèp yo a tout van sa yo. P ap gen nasyon kote moun rejte a Élam yo pa prale.
37 I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before those who seek their life; and I will bring evil on them, even my fierce anger,' says YHWH; 'and I will send the sword after them, until I have consumed them;
Konsa, Mwen va kraze Élam devan lènmi yo ak devan sila k ap chache lavi yo. Mwen va mennen gwo kalamite sou yo, menm kòlè sovaj Mwen’, deklare SENYÈ a. ‘Mwen va voye nepe kont yo jiskaske Mwen fin manje yo nèt.
38 and I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from there king and officials,' says YHWH.
Epi Mwen va mete twòn pa Mwen nan Élam, e Mwen va detwi wa pa yo ak ofisye pa yo,’ deklare SENYÈ a.
39 'But it shall happen in the latter days, that I will bring back the captivity of Elam,' says YHWH."
‘Men li va vin rive nan dènye jou yo, ke Mwen va restore fòtin Élam yo’, deklare SENYÈ a.”
